My basic income is a non-profit, registered association that is committed to spreading the idea of unconditional basic income and researching it.
The association was founded in July 2014 in Berlin by Michael Bohmeyer . The main activities include drawing lots for a one-year basic income, campaigns, educational events and collaborations on basic income, as well as our own research. The association is financed through donations and crowdfunding.
history
In the summer of 2014, a total of four one-year basic incomes of 12,000 euros each were collected for the first time in a crowdfunding campaign. The initiator of the campaign, Michael Bohmeyer, then founded the non-profit association Mein Grundeinkommen eV, which regularly awards donation-based basic income.
The recipients are determined by a public lottery. The association has so far raffled over 600 basic incomes, which were transferred to the winners in the form of 1,000 euros per month for one year. About half of the recipients publish their experiences in a blog on the club's website and in the media.
For the book What Would You Do? Michael Bohmeyer and Claudia Cornelsen asked 24 winners from all over Germany and systematically summarized the experience in "Six facets of the basic sense of income". Immediately after publication, the book landed at number 3 on the Spiegel bestseller list.
